Adding to their American Express Global Lounge Collection, American Express Platinum card holders can now enjoy Lufthansa Lounge access in Munich. Lufthansa’s Senator lounges generally offer a solid lounge expedience. Cardholders can access the following Lufthansa lounges in the Munich Airport, all located in Terminal 2: Lufthansa Senator Lounge (Non-Schengen) Lufthansa Senator Lounge (Schengen) Lufthansa Business Lounge (Schengen) Lufthansa Business Lounge (Non-Schengen) I’d certainly says these are welcome additions to the American Express Global Lounge Collection.

Bound for London, my sister and I were flying British Airway from Pisa to London Heathrow after wrapping up a nice time in Florence and the surrounding region. While we were staying in Florence, there a more flight options out of Pisa than the Florence airport. Plus, award availability on British Airways was much better from Pisa. After riding the train from Florence, we took the brand new Pisa People Mover to the airport. The ride takes less than 5…

Heading home form a nice weekend in New York, we headed to LaGuardia for the flight back to Dallas. LaGuardia Airport is at  the top of most travelers’ list as the worst airport in the Untied States. Sadly, I have to agree with that sentiment: it’s just an awful airport. Our Uber dropped us off at the wrong terminal so we had to take an out-of-the-way shuttle to Terminal B. We arrived about an hour before our boarding time so…

After our Virgin Atlantic flight from London Gatwick, we had wasted good hour at The Club at LAS. I can’t believe I had actually “forgotten” that there was an American Express Centurion Lounge in our terminal! After realizing this, we headed over to the Las Vegas Amex Centurion Lounge. Located in the D Concourse of Terminal 1 in the Las Vegas airport, the Las Vegas Amex Centurion Lounge is part of American Express’ proprietary airport lounges.As a American Express Centurion Card…

With a decently long layover before our Air France flight to Paris, we had some time to pass at the Minneapolis airport. MSP is a pretty nice airport in itself and probably my favorite US Delta hub. We decided to have some lounge time at he Escape Lounge which is located on the upper or Mezzanine level of the terminal, right at the entrance to Concourse E. We gained access to the lounge as a part of my Priority Pass…

Located in the sleepy Terminal E at DFW, the Delta Sky Club DFW is located at the very end of the Delta gates. Terminal E is still under a complete rennovation so the Delta Sky Club DFW has moved around in recent years. I’m not an incredibly frequent flyer of Delta these days but I do have access thanks to my American Express Platinum card. But for this particular journey, we were traveling internationally in Business Class with Delta and…

Let me preface this “review” with a full admission that I frequent the DFW Amex Centurion Lounge on a regular basis. As an American Express Platinum card holder, I receive complimentary access, regardless of airline or class of service I’m flying. Platinum Card and Centurion Card holders receive complimentary access (plus 2 guests) while holders of any other American Express card can access the lounge for a $50 fee. When this lounge isn’t crowded, it’s a decent place to grab a…
